Aggregat-4

The Aggregat-4, also known as the V-2 rocket, was a German missile developed during World War II. It was the world's first long-range guided ballistic missile, designed to carry explosives to targets from a distance. Powered by a liquid-fuel engine, it could reach the edge of space before descending onto its target. The technology behind the V-2 laid the groundwork for future space exploration and missile development. Despite its destructive purpose, it represented a significant advancement in rocket engineering and influenced both military and civilian space programs worldwide.
